I did most of my hunting back in Ohio as a kid with a H&R single shot 20 gauge.
This was my solution for an HD shotgun in a home with small children. It needed to be a pump so I could lock it with the chamber opened to make it inoperable with a full tube and side saddle. The mount is screwed into an interior brick wall just inside the master closet. The keys are in the little nightstand safe with my G34. When I patterned it at the longest distance in my house (about 20 meters- I have a big house) it really liked winlite 12g reduced recoil shells which I can’t find anymore. It didn’t really like flite control for some reason. I know you guys aren’t big on pistol grips, the mako stock folds and has a recoil reducing spring that significantly reduces recoil.
I only don't like PG's on Mossbergs, the controls don't jive with a PG. On an 870 or something else the PG is cool.
A few more of the chopped 16 gauge Lefever Fuddster;
Picked up a H&R Topper 20ga. This is an older one with the thinner profile barrel so it's pretty light. This is my second 20ga with this barrel but the furniture isn't original, though it is in good shape. I think I'm going to grab a Survivor fore end and a synthetic stock to lighten it up even more and make it into a take down.
Here you can see the gap between the fore end and barrel showing that this furniture is for a gun with a different barrel profile.
Go to gauge on top of my go to bag.
